Took Oldfloss’s advice today and set out for a run. Started on the Wk8 R1 with the mindset of trying and seeing how far I could go and much to my surprise I managed it! Perhaps struggled more than a little with the last five minutes but having been unwell the past week I can cope with that.

So glad to have got that one done and dusted...feel like I’m back on it again.

Thanks again Oldfloss for your support and words of wisdom. 😁

Oldfloss is such a wise woman, she seems to know instinctively what’s good for us. Glad you’re back enjoying your running. 🤓
